Abstract

The effect of minor Ti additions content (0% Ti, 0.4% Ti, 1% Ti, 2% Ti) on the oxidation behaviour of Ni-20Cr-10Al-0.4Y (in weight-%) model alloys was investigated in the temperature range 950°C to 1100°C up to 200 h in Ar - 20% O 2 . Alloy microstructure, oxide scale morphology and microstructure of the scale were characterized by SEM/EDX and TEM. The growth mechanisms of the alumina scales formed on the model alloys were studied by two-stage oxidation experiments with 18 O 2 -tracer and subsequent SNMS-analyses. The microstructural observations were correlated with the oxide scale properties in respect to growth rates and spalling resistance. which was tested during cyclic oxidation.
